LG OLED55B7V price hikes everywhere??

Anyone that has one of these;

Is there a way to select a program from the EPG and to switch to that channel in one click?

Or do you always have to select the sub menu (three lines) at the end of the current program on the channel you want to choose, then click watch from the sub menu that appears?

I have the C7.
As far as I have been able to figure out, no you can't do it from the EPG in one click.
You can however use the side menu.

When you are already on live TV, press the right arrow on the remote, and click on Programs or whatever it says, it will bring up a "mini" EPG that you can single click to switch. Doesn't really solve the problem of looking at future broadcasts but hey :/
 
I took the plunge and got myself the B7. Picture is great however am a little annoyed as the tv is leaning a few degrees backwards when on its stand! So annoying. I’ve had to put a magazine at the back of the stand to get it level!

Not cool for a £1300 tv!

Same, I have the C7 as I preferred the look and was aware of the TV leaning as per the post below yours.

It's not the end of the world having to click twice using the pointer. Just seems a little odd that you can't just click and watch.

You can do it in two clicks of the "mouse wheel".
Click it once to select the program you want to watch, then after the selected program has turned red with the "play arrow", click it again.

Thanks for that, good to know that it IS supposed to be straight lol. I’ll try and try reattach the stand tomorrow and see how it goes. Hopefully if it is an issue then it’ll just need a new stand instead of a new tv! Picture is awesome tho!
 
OK I've got the tv Installed. Wow 4k footy looks good. Panny ub900..... Deep colour Do I selected auto 10 bit or 12?

Can't believe blade runner 2049 on rakuten is in dolby vision and atmos :)

Does anyone know if it's possible to play and trigger the Dolby Vision icon, when playing Dolby Vision compatible content from a PC connected to the TV?

I've tried this LG Dolby Vision demo file found via https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=52oUr8jGENY
Here's the downloadable file page http://4kmedia.org/lg-dolby-vision-uhd-4k-demo/
Scroll down the page for the DL link.

I'm not sure if the "problem" is the software players I'm using can't decode the signal or my graphics card can't handle it.
They play other HDR formats.
The video signal is going directly to the TV, not via Amp.
Card: GTX 980 Ti. Players: PotPlayer, MPC-HC and MPC-BE (all using MadVR).

I can play and trigger the Dolby Vision icon if I connect a HDD directly to the TV.


Thanks.
 
Ok those of you that have the tv, is it straight on its stand? I’ve tried reattaching my stand, and have even been into Richer Sounds and swapped the stand for another one but the tv is still leaning backwards quite a few degrees! Is it the design??
